There’s lot of rumors surrounding the WWE world title right now, so we’ll take a look
at the rumored return for the world heavyweight title, Trish Stratus, and much more
Let’s start things off with this brief report on the world heavyweight title’s return
to WWE television
This report comes from Dan Beltzer, who’s been around in the community for a while and
has lots of insiders within the world of championship titles
According to Dan, he says that he heard that there were strong pitches made within WWE
during early 2022 for the classic ‘big gold’ world heavyweight title to make its return
to WWE television and replace Roman Reigns’ Universal Title
Which would of put the Universal Title into retirement and have Roman continue his title
reign with the classic world heavyweight title
But for whatever reason, the plans and pitches didn’t make it out that far and eventually
fell through the cracks
He also said Vince McMahon was reportedly trying to get a new unified title done and
created in time for Wrestlemania 40 in 2024
But there hasn’t been much updates to that rumor because Vince McMahon would end up retiring
in July 2022, but would re-join the company several months later, and now his WWE creative
status is a big mystery, so no one knows if his originals plans for the new unified title
at Wrestlemania 40 is still in place, or if plans have changed since a new regime took
over
We did previously go over the new report that Triple H did recently approve the creation
of the new unified WWE title, so maybe Vince’s original vision of the new WWE title being
ready in time for Wrestlemania 40 is still a very likely possibility
But that’s the latest there for the news and rumors regarding the WWE world titles
The classic world title was close to making its return in 2022 for the first time since
2014, but they ultimately decided to stick with the Universal Title
But the rumors of the universal title getting retired sometime in 2023 in placement for
the new unified title is continuing to gain momentum and buzz, so maybe that is something
we can see real soon
—————————
Now let’s get back into things with Trish Stratus, Becky Lynch, Lita and Damage Control
Becky Lynch and Bayley’s feud dates back to the week of Summerslam 2022, where Becky
Lynch would end up getting written off WWE television thanks to an attack from Bayley
and Damage Control
Becky Lynch would end up returning to action at War Games and would pick up that feud with
Bayley that’s still going on in current day
The main theme of the story from November to early 2023 was how Becky Lynch was just
simply outnumbered by Damage Control
It was always three on one attacks and no matter how great Becky Lynch is, she just
can’t simply win those fights where she was just so heavily outnumbered
But what started happening?
Well Becky Lynch started receiving Hall Of Fame help out of no where
First, Lita made her return to WWE and assisted Becky Lynch in fighting of Bayley and Damage
Control, but there was one big problem…
they were still outnumbered two to three
So fast forward a few weeks after that and Becky Lynch and Lita’s prayers are answered…
Trish Stratus ends up making her return to fully balance out the odds against Bayley
and Damage Control and make it a fair three on three situation
But after Trish Stratus returned, there were several reports that a big unexpected twist
was coming for this entire storyline
And everyone’s first guess for that big twist was a heel turn from Trish Stratus
Especially with other reports claiming that Trish Stratus versus Becky Lynch was allegedly
set for Summerslam, that only seemed to confirm everyone suspicions that a Trish Stratus heel
turn could be part of the plans to start that feud
So that’s been the popular rumor and fan theory over the last few weeks and a segment
from the Wrestlemania edition of Raw just heavily hinted at that direction once again
This moment went down during The Miz’s ‘Miz TV’ segment with Becky Lynch, Lita, and
Trish Stratus
The Miz planted the seed for the story when he asked Trish and Lita about why would they
make their returns only to play back up to Becky Lynch
Lita answered the question, pointing out how she’s holding WWE championship gold and
doesn’t feel like a backup at all… but Trish Stratus on the other hand, did not answer
that question about being a backup to Becky Lynch and she remained absolutely quiet on
that topic
So it was one of those storytelling moments that was very subtle and you may have missed
it if you weren’t paying close attention, but Trish’s silence on that topic and question
actually speaks volumes about what could be going on in the character’s mind and what
she’s about to pull on Becky Lynch
Lita said there’s no problem with her current role, but it definitely seems like Trish has
a little problem with Becky Lynch and how everything is playing out
And this is a theory we’ve talked about and covered over the last few weeks, but Trish’s
main issue could possibly turn out to be exactly what The Miz said
Maybe ever since she returned, maybe Trish Stratus just feels like she’s been in the
shadows of Becky Lynch, playing backup to Becky, and not getting the attention that
she believes she deserves from the fans and everyone else as a WWE Hall Of Fame member
with a legendary career dating back to the early 2000s
Maybe she feels disrespected and feels like all the attention is going to Becky Lynch,
and maybe she doesn’t like how Becky is being seen and portrayed as the ‘leader’
of their little temporary faction heading into Wrestlemania
Maybe these are all things that have been on Trish’s mind and have been boiling up
over the last few weeks
Maybe Trish does like Becky Lynch, but maybe she doesn’t feel like Becky has quite the
career accomplishments that she has, so Trish doesn’t feel like she should be taking a
backseat to Becky Lynch
And this will of course lead to Trish Stratus’ jealously towards Becky Lynch eventually imploding,
which brings us to Trish’s heel turning attack on Becky Lynch
And telling by the story’s direction and the seeds they’ve planted just like that
question from the Miz, it appears like that’s the direction they’re going in after all
Trish Stratus’ main reason for turning heel on Becky is going to be something along the
lines of her not enjoying playing second fiddle to Becky Lynch
Becky Lynch is in the prime of her career and already appears to be on her way to becoming
a Hall Of Fame member, but Trish is still going to believe that she should’ve been
the one leading this little faction herself because of her own career accomplishments
The wildcard in this situation is basically Lita
Like Lita said on Raw, she’s a champion, she doesn’t feel like she’s playing backup
to Becky Lynch, she’s happy with her role with Becky
But we do know that Lita has a much deeper friendship with Trish Stratus
So if Trish Stratus brutally turns on Becky Lynch, where exactly does Lita’s loyalty
lie at?
Will Lita side with her longtime friend Trish Stratus and agree with her that Becky Lynch
was hogging the spotlight?
Or will Lita actually side with her current tag team partner Becky Lynch and believes
that Trish Stratus is wrong for doing that to Becky?
Both options are strong possibilities for Lita
She can turn heel too and be in Trish’s corner for this rumored Summerslam match with
Becky Lynch
Or Lita can even stand in Becky Lynch’s corner opposite from Trish at Summerslam
So definitely keep a very close eye on Trish Stratus because something about taking a backseat
to Becky Lynch could be bothering her and that could implode at any given moment
So we may definitely see Becky Lynch versus Trish Stratus real soon in the near future
